    Sweet Spot on RAM?

    NVIDIA Asks Retailers To Stop Selling To Miners & Sell To Gamers Instead,(wccf)

    This one sounds better. I don't know if it's possible but at least this is a real difference that doesn't affect what you do with the card. Most gamers have one card, miners have 2 or more. So a card could detect if it's alone and behave poorly otherwise. They could sell "gaming protected"...

    NoScript

    I use Noscript at the moment. I just click "Temporarily allow" each time I visit a trusted website and I need the script functions.

    Do you face your PSU up or down, fan on or off?

    Interresting ! I will consider having my corsair rm 550x facing up. It's facing down at the moment and with an i3/1060 the PSU case is at 38°c at idle and 44°c in stress test. Edit: The fan never turned on.

    almost lost $8000 cause of TeamViewer left opened on desktop

    I guess you were targeted by simple scanning and then bruteforcing. They were certainly very low profile hackers and may not have injected trojans but you should not consider your pc safe anymore. On top of all the basic advices given here I'll add: 1) The computer you do your banking on...

    List of ssd cache software?

    Nope, they are not in RAID. I had the idea that I could use the second SSD to cache the green drive, to speed up the loading of the games I am currently playing. I thought ok, I may have 100/200Gb of game files but there's really no need to have all of that on a SSD ! So I just want a system...

My system has a 650Gb caviar green and two 64GB SSD. Installing windows on the SSD makes a huge difference. It boots...
